The global electric mobility technology brand ZEEKR has reached another milestone, with its first shipment of ZEEKR 001 Luxury Shooting Brakes now on its way to Europe.

Following the start of pre-orders in the Netherlands and Sweden, the response from customers for the ZEEKR 001 luxury Shooting Brake has been exceptional. The initial batch of European-specification models, which comprised 288 vehicles, set sail on the 28th of August and, weather permitting, will be arriving in a few weeks, ready for Autumn deliveries.

Building on its success in the Netherlands and Sweden, ZEEKR will grow its presence to six countries in 2024, with the ambition to expand into most countries in Western Europe by 2026. In doing so, the automotive manufacturer will progressively strengthen its presence in the world’s most established luxury car market as it forges ahead with its strategy of global growth.

Offering an exceptional balance of performance, agility, efficiency and refinement, the ZEEKR 001 luxury Shooting Brake, in 400kW (544hp), 686Nm, dual-motor all-wheel drive Performance and Privilege specification, can accelerate from 0-100km/h in just 3.8 seconds.

Featuring the same 100kWh battery, the single motor rear-wheel drive Long Range version can travel up to 620km (WLTP)¹ on a single charge, making range anxiety a thing of the past. (ZEEKR 001: Combined power consumption in kWh/100km: 18.2-18.5 (WLTP); Combined CO2 emissions combined in g/km: 0). Offering the speed and convenience of 200kW DC fast charging, replenishing the battery from 0-80% takes just 30 minutes².
